Show Lo ZhiXiang spent White Day with 160 of his female fans; he even picked some lucky fan(s) to enjoy Disney's latest 3-D film, Gnomeo and Juliet, with him. He is busy promoting his upcoming concert and various autograph concerts; he sleeps less than four hours a day!

"We've done four autograph concerts in a row; my co-workers are all exhausted. Although my arms and shoulders are sore, when I see, at each event, my fans doing the dance moves for 獨一無二 Only You [Du Yi Wu Er Only You], I just feel so happy!" He will be holding a concert in Tainan on the 19th; it will be held at the outdoor stadium of the Taiwan College of Physical Education. The tickets to the concert-- all 18,000 of them-- have sold out; it is estimated that they will make a profit of $40 million NTD.

(1) White Day is another Valentine's Day, celebrated by a few countries in Asia, mainly Japan, Taiwan, and S. Korea. Western Valentine's Day in Asia is a bit of a role reversal: girls typically give homemade or store-bought chocolates to their crushes. It's on White Day that the boys respond with their own presents. (2) The Chinese doesn't specify whether one or more lucky fans were picked for the movie screening.

Show Lo ZhiXiang (XiaoZhu)'s record company placed a statue of him in the square before Taipei Main Metro Station; Wilber Pan WeiBo had an autograph concert in the same place the very next day. As a result, Show's statue was turned around and covered with cloth. Rumor has it that the two will also be appearing together at Japan's Asia Music Summer Concert, which is set for April 24. So, is Show upset that his statue was covered up so unceremoniously? Show's manager said that he thinks the whole thing is a lot of fun and that there is nothing to it at all; the two are good friends.

The two may be good friends, but they are rivals on stage. Both favor strong and powerful dance songs. In Wilber's single, UUU, he sings, "I'm crazy over uuuuu"; in Show's single, 獨一無二 Only You [Du Yi Wu Er Only You], he sings, "only only uuu." Both compete for the hearts of young girls.

The two will participate in Japan's Asia Music Summer Concert, along with Vanness Wu JianHao and Da Mouth. As of present, concert plans have not been affected by the earthquake in Japan. Kylie Minogue will perform in Japan the day before.

On the 7th, Show Lo ZhiXiang (XiaoZhu) held a press conference for his new album in Beijing. Today (March 8th) is International Women's Day; Show was, however, unable to spend it with his mother. He could only give her some "red envelopes" in his stead, because "she likes gifts she can count." He revealed, "My mother loves animals. She'll even test the girls I bring home, see if they'll voluntarily clean up the dog's poop. If they do, they get extra points [with her]."

Show's mother has recently been looking for land in KeeLung to care for stray dogs. Show said, "Whenever I'd bring my girlfriend(s) home in the past, my mom would let the dog out on purpose to go to the bathroom. Then, she would watch to see if the girl would voluntarily help the dog clean up. It was a test to see whether or not she had any love for animals." There was finally a girl who passed the test; however, the girl cheated, and the relationship ended.

Taiwanese singer-host Show Luo and his mother recently shot a health
drink commercial, earning a sum of NT$6 million (S$260,000).

However, the duo has no intention of pocketing the money for themselves.

Ever the filial son, Show expressed that the repayment he and his mother
received for shooting the commercial would go towards his mother's plan
of helping stray dogs. Building a shelter for the stray dogs would need
at least NT$10 million (S$464,000).

To that, Show's mother said laughingly, "[We're] still in need of money.
[I hope] more companies would invite me for endorsements."

Known for phoning his mother daily, Show is currently busy with two commercial shoots.

"I reached home at 7am, after I finished my first commercial shoot. My
mother was still awake [when I arrived home]. She said she could only be
assured after knowing I was safe. Instead, I'm worried about her
condition today. After all, she's the main lead of the commercial!" Show
revealed.

Show's mother quipped that she "was feeling very good" and compared
filming her first commercial with her son to that of "an elementary
school child on a field trip".

Singer Show Luo takes the crown for selling the most number of albums last year, with his seventh album Rashomon.

For the first time, 'double J' Jay Chou and Jolin Tsai had to step down
from their positions, claiming the second and third spot respectively.
Jay released his 10th album The Era last year, and Jolin released a
concept album Myself.

At fourth place was Kenji Wu's Love Me, Hate Me. Golden Bell Best
Actress Rainie Yang, who acted alongside Show in Hi, My Sweetheart, took
the fifth position with Rainie & Love ...?

Other albums which made it to the top 10 included Elva Hsiao's Miss
Elva, Hebe Tien's To Hebe, René Liu's Together, S.H.E's SHERO and
Lee-Hom's The 18 Martial Arts.

The PMW Music Website Annual Chart is said to be "Taiwan's most
impartial chart" because they not only calculated actual album sales,
but also digital downloads in Taiwan.

Show Luo announced yesterday that pre-order tickets are now selling for
both his new album "The One and Only" and corresponding tour "舞法舞天” (a
play on the idiom "no respect for law and order"), which begins March
19 in Taichung. According to Show, the concert contains 80% brand new
material and 5 costumes changes. He apologized to his fans, saying
"sorry for making you spend so much money." However, he invited 60
patients from the New Dawn Educare Center (for children with
intellectual disabilities) to watch his concert for free.

On the concert poster, Show dons a set of crystal armor that is worth
30 million NT and a lion-shaped helmet that weighs 20 kg. In
opportunities in business and relationships, Show asserts that he is
like a lion, waiting until the opportune moment to "pounce" on his
prey. "Especially in relationships," Show says, "there needs to be that
'spark'. So if I see a girl and she doesn't bring out my 'silk worm',
then there is no chemistry." However, he admits that no girl has made
him feel that way for a while.

Last year was a highly successful year for Show as his last album,
"Rashomon", was the top-selling album of the year. Show and his staff
joked that it created too much pressure on him to release another album
to follow that one. He still remembers how only 400 people came to the
fan-signing of his very first album, 700 for the second one, 1000 for
the third one, until finally now autograph signing will draw out tens
of thousands of screaming fans. Luckily, Show will be able to take a
well-deserved break over Chinese New Year. Where will he go? "I've
already reserved us tickets-anywhere my mother wants to go, that's
where we'll be."

The highly anticipated "2011
Superstar Red White Face Off" by TTV entered the Taipei Arena on 01/10,
with artists split between red and white teams, there were a total of 28
performances of non-stop climax after climax. Including Show Lo, Elva
Hsiao, David Tao, Daniel Chan, JJ Lin, Kenji Wu, Aoyama Thelma, Kousuke
Atari and Korean groups After School and SHINee, and many others,
filming from 7 PM to 12 AM with the camera continuously rolling, a new
record for a special program in the country. In the end Harlem Yu
celebrated his white team victory, winning 2 years in a row! The victory
flag was presented to Harlem by Show Lo, where Harlem loudly exclaimed,
"Our Red White Troupe, Here To Serve You Every Year!"

Show Lo's Performance Photos Finally Revealed

This year, CTV also invited Korean groups in a competition, TTV's "Red
Vs White" was nervous, and played too mysteriously, causing the whole
performance to go a little haywire. The artists and managements were
unable to attain a schedule of the event beforehand, so when time came
no one knew what to do, and some artists didn't even get to walk the
"Red Carpet." Show Lo, Daniel Chan, Gigi Leung, and David Tao's
spectacular performance photos were also buried for a day and was
finally released yesterday.

Despite all that, the performance of the night that heated the Taipei
Arena to it's highest point, was none other than Asia Dance King Show
Lo's finale performance. As not to disappoint as the Red White
Ambassador, he rounded up 50 performers, that marched up from the
audience, then Show Lo made a grand explosive entrance on stage. Show
especially arranged for a Chinese-bamboo accompanied version of his
dance piece "Jing Wu Men (Dance Gate)" bringing in the Lunar New Year
atmosphere with his golden fans, movements in sync and smooth, while he
also didn't forget to interact with his fans in the audience, asking
everyone to vote and cheer him on! His entire performance had everyone
in the audience screaming crazily. The level of spectacular was off the
charts, giving a big booster for the white team.
